We must be steady enough in ourselves
To be open and to let the winds of life blow through us

Our inspiration
To breathe with them
Mobile and soft in the limberness of our bodies

As it were
To dance
And yet to stand upright…~ Mary Caroline Richards

That me would like to do.~ Agatha Christie

Sometimes you can do it
Even than you thought
You could.~ Jimmy Carter

If only
Every man
Would make proper use
Of his strength
And do his utmost
He need never
